FIGURE 5.

Alternative splicing of GND orthologs in the Saccharomycotina and A. fumigatus. (A) Splicing pattern is shown for each of the species analyzed, along with the species phylogeny as in Figure 1A. The alt 3′? indicates that although a potential alternative 3′ splice site is conserved, we did not detect any exon junction reads indicating its usage under the specific conditions analyzed. The black asterisk indicates a change from alternative 3′ splice site to exon skipping. (B) Alternative 3′ splice sites in the GND ortholog in L. starkeyi. (C) Exon skipping in the GND ortholog in Y. lipolytica. (D) Alternative 3′ splice sites in the GND ortholog in C. albicans, as previously reported. (E) The T. delbrueckii ortholog contains a constitutive intron in the orthologous position.
